These cupcakes are the perfect appetizer for parties and gatherings, since they are easy to make and visually appealing.

4.	In another bowl, mix the white frosting with some red food coloring to create a ketchup-like color.
5.	On each vanilla cupcake bottom, add a dollop of ketchup frosting. Place a chocolate cupcake circle on top, then add another dollop of ketchup frosting.
6.	Add some sesame seeds on top of the frosting to give the appearance of bun seeds.
7.	Spread the lettuce frosting on the remaining vanilla cupcake tops and place them on top of the sesame seeds.
